Q1) Where can we purchase X-sections?

A1) The Cross Sections are available at Airport Blueprint for purchase. They are located at 4854 N. Blackstone Ave., Fresno, CA.

Q2) Since work cannot start until after June 15, 2009, why is the State putting this project out to bid at this time? Since fuel, oil, steel and concrete pricing are so volatile it seems that a bid date closer to the actual start date might better serve all parties involved.
